Thanks, Jeff!

 

[ChiefWarrant]

Thank you Jeff. Time for a test drive.

 

[rayhjr]

That's quite a List! Thanks, Ya'll.

 

[mrGrumpy]

Thanks Jeff (And V3 Dev Team) Good timing.

 

[RichieNorthcott]

Thanks so much! look forward to trying it out

(are you sure all the features mentioned in the release notes are published? I've had a quick poke around and not bumped into much other than the new controllers and the RGBW option.... I was thinking some of us were going to test drive the moving head features before general release?)

 

[JCB]

The plan was to put out a general release without the new moving head feature to ensure users who aren't using moving heads have a stable release. The last ticket for the moving heads was submitted this morning, so we are super close to having that ready. The users who have volunteered to beta test the moving head feature will be notified when it is available. If the moving head build is well received the leads might do another general release with it merged in. As far as the release notes go, some of the building blocks for the moving head support is in the general release. A few tickets were merged into main branch before we decided it would be a good idea to create a separate GIT branch for the majority of the moving head work.

If anyone else would like to be a beta tester of the moving head support please reach out to the Vixen team.

 

[RichieNorthcott]

Thanks for clarifying - I'm 90% sure I'm on the beta tester list, but please feel free to include me if not
